Seriously doubt it...
the GTI market is much more downscale than ours, so it made sense for APR to make a beginner kit to capture the low side of that market, that torque rating is great, and would make a very pleasant daily commuter.
Looking at the A4 market, AWE has had nearly this exact basic kit out for years now, so APR would gain nothing by putting out a KO4 kit for us, unless they added to it... and itt makes no sense to put a mid-level kit out using a Ko4 since once you are swapping out manifolds and injectors, you might as well modernize your turbo choice. Besides, if APR put out a dressed KO4 kit it could steal sales from their S3 kit.
Besides, according to APR insiders on AW they are working on something "big" for the A4, at least this is what they have been saying for 6 months now

Sameer

hehe...lets do it next weekend?
the big test is middle of next week, and this weekend im visiting a friend.
It should be broken in enough by then, right?
I need to get under it to find that vibration from the clutch change too...
I have realistically about 250 miles on it now...
